From Valerie:
Jessie walked around with me while I was pregnant for months to keep me healthy & help start labor, & told me lots of mommy stories & helped prepare my mind for labor. Let me practice changing diapers, & giving Preston a bottle.
I remember Skyla & Ashton would go with us on our walks. Skyla woke up one night crying thinking that the baby was was already born & she squished the baby. Jessica was calm with her & explained it was a dream & even had Skyla come & look at my very pregnant belly to calm her down. We waited until Skyla went back to bed before giggling about it. "That's Mommy life. It can be hard, but, silly, & fun too," she told me.
She watched my son for the 1st year of his life. He was such a cry baby & she had lots of other kids in the house & still managed to keep them all alive! Very impressive!
